Surprise Was

surprise was -
on a bright March morn
Spring blooming in dawn
lips nervous, eyes raining wide
bent on my knees, proposing for a ride
"Yes," u said
"Forever," I prayed.

surprise was -
the summer I turned twenty
in June, gifts received aplenty
but none as special as this
closing my eyes, I experienced bliss
our first kiss, witnessed by stars
ever so special, I knew we'd go far.

surprise was -
autumn breeze in September skies
colours fading amidst those lies
the first glimpse of distrust, and you said "Sorry"
things would be fine, I hoped, trying not to worry
"Let's start afresh, let's give it a try,
the ice would melt, baby please don't cry."

surprise was -
December cold burning with tears
crushed under blows of myriad fears
you said you've found someone, and departed with a "Bye"
I sat down on the corridor, trying to find out "Why"
a new year around the corner, but would Spring ever be back
I try to erase, but your scent still lingers on my track.
